We don't call it a Model 10, although it belongs in the Model 10's famliy tree. Model numbers were not introduced until 1957.
The gun looks all original with correct stampings and in very good shape. The serial puts it in late 1942. The WB and P as well as the flaming bomb symbol on the butt are inspection and proof marks, the property stamp on the top signifies Lend-lease.
